Liverpool FC appreciation thread

[marcus]

They are not that special, they work hard have loads of energy but rely on out running the opposition....

They have three quick front players who score the majority of goals....

Klopp is a motivational manager who has installed a work ethic & positive mentality....

Match them with high energy levels & positive attitude is the key....

They do seem to get decisions go there way at Anfield, you are almost playing the ref also....

Had been done before

I remember a similar argument when it looked like Rush might score in every round of the FA Cup a lad in my school said it had never been done. Pointed out that it had... Kopite: "Yeah but that was ages ago so who cares?"

Are you sure you weren't discussing Heysel?

Best teams win multiple titles, often in a row. One great season does not make you the best team ever.

Exactly what I keep saying to them.

They're a very good team but until they win it a couple of times, they're just another Leicester or Blackburn - they HATE that!

Also, as much as they may deride us and our impotence in attack, we're the only side in the league to have scored more than one goal past them in the same game this season.

That said, saw on Twitter (I know....) that there's about 10 or 11 English Football records that they are on course to beat as it stands

- Biggest gap between 1st & 2nd (19 points) // currently 16 points with a game in hand
- Longest unbeaten run (49) // currently 39
- Most points (100) // currently 64 with 48 points left to play for.
- Most consecutive wins (18) // currently 13 (next 7 games Wolves, Southampton, West Ham, Norwich, West Ham, Watford, Bournemouth)
- Most wins (32) // currently 21
- Most goals (106) // currently 52
- Best GD (+79) // currently +38
- Most away points (50) // currently 28
- Most away wins (16) // currently 9
- Earliest title win (GW 33)

Can't really knock them if they manage half of them.

His Dortmund team had much more subtly, some proper midfielders in that side and not just roided up retrievers

A decent team in a pish poor league.

 

[Cactusjack]

If they break the points record and dont get beat this season and then retain the league next season then ill admit they are the best premier league team ever.
They still havent had any injuries to the front three or VVD.

My concern is if they win the league and the CL again they can basically sign anyone including Mbappe and they have the dosh to do so now.

Yeah, because not one superstar player ever in the entire world has ever found the English season and the brutality of some teams a bit too much for them....

lol
The FA probably know, and will never do anything about it. It would be a PR nightmare. Hilarious if they were stripped of their titles, and relegated.

A decent team in a pish poor league.

Been saying this all season.
The current quality of the Prem is shoite.
The RS are the best team and assisted by the rest being on the slide.

Their football has been the best by miles and not needed too much luck. But they still get the luck.
I hate them.

I'd swap their first eleven for our frauds. There. I said it.

 

[Khalekan]

Any chance this thread, if it must exist at all, being given a sub forum all of its own, where those whom wish to read or write positive things about the RS are free to do so without it polluting the busy World Football forum?

I cannot be the only poster whose eyes ache every time he or she sees it.

Thank you.

Rather never win again than be one of them.

 

[arbok]

They've not had a single decent challenger all season. Man City for all of 3 weeks.

Therefore we don't know how bad the league really is... they are probably a top 5 team of all time if they get 100+ points, even if the rest of the league is terrible.

Ffs get rid of this thread it’s an Everton forum not a kiss Liverpool’s rear end one.
